19 year-old Prince created these jazz-funk masterpieces from the Loring Park Sessions in 1977.
He produced all of the arrangements and performed all of the instruments himself.
Prince, Andre Cymone And Bobby Z recorded instrumentals in the rehearsal room of Owen Husney’s Loring Park office.
They sound like well-crafted compositions rather than spur-of-the-moment jams.
The tracks feature keyboards (Prince), Bass (Andre), Drums (Bobby Z).
This volume of #TheSoulMixtape starts with Moonchild talking about what Neo Soul means to them and then taking a trip through some great examples of the genre before taking diversions into Reggae, Acid Jazz and straight up Soul territory! Greats like The Isley Brothers mix with (what were) upstarts like Bilal and Van Hunt, all the way to those Acid Jazz Funkers from the UK Driza Bone and the Brand New Heavies.
